Fiktiv Australia - The Daily Telegraph

The Daily Telegraph, also nicknamed The Tele, is an Australian daily conservative tabloid newspaper published in Sydney, New South Wales, by News Corp. The Telegraph is published Monday through Saturday and is available throughout Sydney, across most of regional and remote New South Wales, the Australian Capital Territory and South East Queensland. Amongst those ranked by Nielsen, the Telegraph's website is the sixth most popular Australian news website with a unique monthly audience of 2,841,381 readers.

Founded in 1879, The Daily Telegraph ran as a broadsheet until 1927, when it switched to a tabloid format. The paper returned to a broadsheet format in 1931, but paper restrictions during the Second World War saw it return to tabloid format in 1942. From 1936 until its sale to Rupert Murdoch's News Limited in 1972, the Telegraph was owned by Sir Frank Packer's Australian Consolidated Press.

In February 1957, Prime Minister Robert Menzies barred Telegraph correspondents from his press conferences because the paper had been critical of his policies.

In October 1990, at the same time as a merger took place between its Melbourne sister papers The Sun News-Pictorial and The Herald, the Telegraph merged with its afternoon sister paper The Daily Mirror to form The Daily Telegraph-Mirror with morning and afternoon editions. The new paper continued in this vein until January 1996, when its name reverted to The Daily Telegraph. The paper continued morning and afternoon editions until January 2002, when the afternoon edition was discontinued.

The circulation of the newspaper in the first half of 2020 was around 489,739 per day, the largest of a Sydney newspaper.

The Daily Telegraph is the most popular and highest circulating newspaper in New South Wales. It is published on behalf of more than 1 million readers a day. It seeks to inform them, answer their questions, help them understand, champion their causes and most importantly to see the world through their eyes. That's why The Daily Telegraph covers election campaigns from behind the wheel of an antique, unreliable Holden, not from the political leaders' election buses. That's why we have had reporters and photographers in the bush throughout the drought, why we publish full Q & A panels so our readers can understand issues thoroughly.

The Daily Telegraph is a member of its readers' community. It is not a once-removed commentator who sits in the grandstands and pontificates dispassionately. The Telegraph is proudly passionate. The Telegraph leads the community as it shows support for slain police officers and supports heroes of the bushfires. The Telegraph is determined to establish a direct connection with its readers that makes it indispensable in their daily lives.
